Willie Nile's new album, HOUSE OF a THOUSAND GUITARS, is the realization and fulfillment of all the promise that had been predicted by many since his debut album years ago. From all-out rockers with meat on the bone like the title track and "Doomsday Dance", to the chilling portrait of wars' aftermath in "Now That the War is Over", to the heartbreaking beauty of "Her Love Falls Like Rain" and "Touch Me", Willie Nile has clearly made the best album of his career.
